JavaScript has finally grown up. Armed with a slew of new features, JavaScript now makes writing the code that powers your applications elegant, concise, and easy to understand. This book is a pragmatic guide to the new features introduced in JavaScript, starting with Edition 6 of ECMAScript, and ending with Edition 9. 

Using a "compare and contrast" approach, each chapter offers a deep dive into new features, highlighting how best to use them moving forward. As you progress through the book, you''ll be offered multiple opportunities to see the new features in action, and in concert with one another.

Backed by an example-driven writing style, you''ll learn by doing, and get ready to embrace the new world of JavaScript.

But what do you do if you find yourself in a tight spot? You can''t simply wing it. With this unique hands-on guide, you''ll learn the ways of Git and have fun while doing it. Raju Gandhi peels back the layers to reveal the simple yet powerful engine that powers Git, so you''ll understand not just the how but the why. You''ll master branches, merges, commit messages, search, utilities, and more; learn best practices for collaborative work; and unlock the full potential of Git.
